“Maureen did a fantastic job taking care of our dog. She was reliable, friendly, clean, and responsive to all our messages. She even sent us photo updates reassuring us that all was going well. We will definitely ask for her help in the future!”

“Tatyana is a reliable and caring sitter. She stayed at our house with our 11.5-year-old German Shepherd and provided excellent care, and tremendous peace of mind for us. Having worked at a kennel previously, she is comfortable around all types of dogs (and ours is a big boy). She sent periodic updates and followed our instructions well. We highly recommend her for short or extended care.”


“I interact with you very well, and vice versa. You are our go-to sitter of all time, now with Teddy as with Cindy. You are so tender and wise with our dogs.”

“It was so nice to know we had a reliable, kind and experienced pet sitter! Amy took care of our two dogs, cat, and gecko and sent great pictures during her stay. We were lucky to have her!”

“Ann was so great! Haze LOVES her. She accommodated to Hazel’s separation anxiety and other quirks so well and sent plenty of updates and pictures. My flight was delayed and Ann was able to stay an extra night, we really appreciate her flexibility!”

“Louisa and her daughter Samantha are wonderful. I had to book them last minute, they were flexible, on time, and respectfully did what I asked them to do! They are very patient with my 7 yr old lab and my 9 week old lab puppy (we all know how naughty and energetic they can be). I received several updates during their overnight stay, and both of my girls were very content when I got home from work. Definitely would recommend them!”

“Katy is so wonderful that I have to leave a second review. We’ve been going through a big transition and Katy continues to meet each of my boys where they are at. Her hyper awareness, consideration, and kindness allow me to travel and not stress about any of the boys.”

“Ray is amazing! Any fur baby would be lucky to have her as a sitter. Our senior pup, Ralphie, fell in love with her! She lovingly cared for him and even sent us updates and photos while we were away. She was very professional and we would never hesitate leaving our dog with her again!”

“Excellent, kind, considerate dog sitter. Briana sent us pictures daily of our dog, she walked him extensively and also helped to work on some training with him. Briana knew how to handle our dog who has some reactivity and anxiety. She was respectful of our home, prompt and great with communication and care !”


“We (and our dogs) loved having Nicole sit for us. She is an excellent communicator and took care of our pups like they were her own. I’d absolutely have her stay with our dogs again—and based on their lukewarm reaction to us coming home, I think they’d like to see her again too. 🤣”


“Nate did an excellent job watching our pup while we were gone for a week. He was patient and affectionate with her and took her with him when he went out and about. He even was cool with starting super early in the morning and finishing late at night! We’ll definitely be calling on him again.”

About: Hi all, my name is Alina and I’m new to Rover :). I have been a reliable dog/cat sitter for family, friends, and co-workers for a few years. I am a respectful, friendly, animal-loving soul that is free all summer to care for pets and make them feel safe and happy! I am starting medical school in the fall so I am excited to get some time with furry friends this summer. I love getting animals outside for walks and playtime. I am happy to work with pets of all ages. I am starting medical school at UW-Madison in the fall so I am not working any particular job this summer other than pet-sitting. With this, my schedule is very flexible and I’m available just about any day of the week/weekends except a few select dates. I’m happy to work early mornings and late nights too if needed. At my client’s home, I care for pets by following their feeding routine, brushing their fur, and incorporating lots of playtime and exercise. While I haven’t been previously asked, I would also be happy to bathe pets if requested!
“Nia and Lauren did a great job house sitting and taking care of our big, young dog Fred for a week over the holidays. We were happy to find sitters who were confident handling our big dogs. They sent pictures, gave him special Christmas treats that his human kids and left the house cleaner than when they arrived.”

“He and one of my girls hit it off! Good communication throughout the stay. He took great care of my girls including administering meds and wrapping a foot too!”

“Great sitter - of house and dog. Friendly and kind; Chico was happy and healthy when we returned and my house was exactly as I left it. I would recommend Megan to anyone and hope to reunite Megan and Chico again!”

“Katie is amazing!! We have 2 very energetic dogs and she made sure to take them on a good walk and play in the backyard multiple times to get their energy out! Our one dog even had some tummy issues and she made him chicken and rice 🥹 we trust Katie with our pups and will definitely utilize her again!”

“Corinne is amazing!! She watched over our two "boys" (greyhounds) and took such thoughtful care of them! We got lots of pictures and updates while we were away and the peace of mind that offers to know that your loved ones are cared for while you are away is truly priceless! Not to mention that she is very respectful of our home and had everything cleaned and tidied as if we were never gone! Gosh, thanks so much!!!”

Orchard Ridge Community pet parents share their Rover experiences
Allegra is fantastic! We are able to go on a vacation for 7 days and know that our two girls were taken care of. Allegra is responsive, super communicative, wonderful with sending pictures and the pups were sad when their time with her was over. Additionally, our house was cleaner when we got home than when we left it!! Wowza!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience with our recent Rover sitter! She was absolutely fantastic while watching our dog, Scooby, for the week. From the start, she excelled at being adaptable, seamlessly adjusting to Scooby’s routine and needs without any issues. We also truly appreciated the frequent, reassuring text messages and photos she sent throughout the week, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, she provided Scooby with an incredible amount of love, affection, and exercise—he was a very happy pup when we returned. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter!

We have entrusted Alaina with the care of our two high-energy Labrador puppies on numerous occasions, and she consistently provides excellent service. During her most recent visit, she spent quality time engaging them in outdoor play in the yard, their favorite activity, and ensured they received the special treats we had provided. We returned home to two happy, well-cared-for, and content puppies. Alaina is dependable, attentive, and demonstrates genuine care for the animals in her charge. We highly recommend her to anyone seeking a trustworthy and responsible pet sitter.

Ray is amazing! Any fur baby would be lucky to have her as a sitter. Our senior pup, Ralphie, fell in love with her! She lovingly cared for him and even sent us updates and photos while we were away. She was very professional and we would never hesitate leaving our dog with her again!

Sophie was great with our Brittany and Lab. We had to book something last minute and she responded right away with her availability. Showed up on time and gave good updates with pictures of how the night was going with the dogs. We have a Brittany that has horrible separation anxiety. She did very well with Sophie after only meeting her for 5 minutes before we had to leave. I would recommend her to anyone needing a good dog sitter.

Ann has taken care of my dogs and cats several times and always does a fantastic job! She was great with both my anxious 4 year old Goldie and my rambunctious 10 month old puppy, meeting their individual needs with great care. She is great at communicating and letting me know everything is well in hand. Highly recommend!

Kaelena took wonderful care of our two puppies. Despite the rainy weather, she made sure they still got plenty of outdoor playtime and attention in the yard. She fed them dinner and even treated them to an evening pupsicle. We came home to two very happy pups—highly recommend!
